25% is pretty high! Knowing that, the decision to turn it on by default does not seem unreasonable. Thinking ahead: e10s is a big enough change that I suspect we'll see high levels of instability when it gets uplifted to Aurora and (especially) Beta. Not sure how to avoid that... but will there be an easy way to disable it? I think there should be a pref in the user prefs (i.e. not just about:config) because it sounds like a non-trivial fraction of users will have add-ons broken by it. And does safe mode disable it?
